Description
Agh, finally!!! Hahah... Hahahahahaaahh!!! *I'm laughing like a mad man, 'case ya' can't tell...*Making this was a lot of fun, I must say, until it came to saving the damn thing... My software for animation is... crap. It's a barebones sample from one of those digital art magazines, it's years old, and now it seems to have forgotten how to SAVE.
Ugh... In the end and with some quick thinking I had to open a preview of it in my browser and download it from that as a gif... but jeez, what a freaking panic I had when the software wouldn't save... (It kept on saying Unknown error, blah blah blah)
But whatever, let's talk art, this took a couple of hours, each box between a few seconds to a couple of minutes to sketch out, depending on complexity, and it's split into thirty two frames of varying lengths, (0.1 to 0.2 mostly, apart from the end)
So what IS it anyhow?
It's my OC Camellia piloting her Sonic Firestorm against three enemy fighters, firing whilst covered by the blinding sunlight she takes two out, but the third is hot on her tail, what'll happen next!? Who knows!! Well, me obviously... XD
It was really fun to draw, though I was really nervous before putting it together, I really wanted to get a sense of speed, and hopefully that came across here. ^_^
I haven't done animation in AGES, like literally, my very first deviation was an animation, and I did one a good few months back too, so in the space of three years I've only animated three times (Including this), so I'm REALLY hoping this works out... I have no idea if it'll even work, with my software being blergh, but here's hoping...
But if it does play please let me know what you think, I'd really really appreciate feedback, cuz' I'd love to make a hobby out of this! (After I get decent software!)
For those wondering, here's my first Animation & Deviation: fav.me/d4ahlxo
Anyway, hope you like!

I like such sketchy pen alike animation. For me it is adorable touch. Most of the time it is going rather smoothly, but I would prefer when the view for character was staying for a bit longer moment.

Wow i love the animation! And the sketchiness of it all makes it even more cooler in my opinion. I Love how smoothly it transitions and the close up of her face the last second just makes the plot more intense! Great job

Ah, thank you very much! I figured sketchiness would be a great way of showing speed, I'm glad it payed off. Heheh, I was really worried it'd be jumpy, the software wasn't the best, but when it uploaded nice and smoothly I was so relieved... XD I'm also really glad you like that last bit, I'm trying to put together a follow up, hopefully I can make a long-term project out of this because it was really fun! ^_^ Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

Omg this is so well done!! Gosh animation takes forever and extremely difficult but it's so rewarding.
But yes it's definitely playing really well! I love how dynamic it is!!

Thank you! Heheh, it was mainly the editing (on my crappy software) that ate up all the time, I stuck to quick sketches, though I like the style of the quick stuff, roughness is great for motion I think!
I tell ya' when this uploaded and worked I was so freaking relieved! >\\\\<
Ahww, thank you so very much! ;w;
